Automotive art

Hi all
I thought it would be good to have a place here where artist could post their latest piece. I hope others will join in and contribute.
Cheers!

PS I'll start it with my latest illustration, the 1970 Le Mans-winning Porsche 917K.

Thanks for your responses.

I do have more, but they aren't German cars ... does it matter?
I will be creating a whole series on the 917s, to celebrate the 40th anniversary, but I'm a bit behind on a commission, so it won't be for a while.

I did the Porsche Sunoco Donohue 917-30, but I think I posted it earlier.
Here it is anyway.
Cheers!

Actually, I had posted one of my Targa Florio series, featuring Herbert Muller and his winning 1974 Porsche RSR.

I'm adding the second in the series, showing 1932 winner Tazio Nuvolari.
What doyou think?

Cheers!

I've always loved the Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato, so I did a sketch of Clark's ... what do you think?

I even created a retro-look poster with it.

Cheers!

Porsche RS60

Hi all
Here is another Porsche sketch I did as a Christmas gift for a friend on the West Coast. It shows the winning car of the 1960 12 Hours of Sebring; he actually covered the race for the CBC back then.
Cheers!
